I have a 1954 235 engine and head. I don't have the temperature sending unit that treads into the head. I'm wondering if the threaded hole in the head is a 5/8 " pipe thread ? Or is this a Speical size ? I lightly tried a 5/8 " brass fitting and it would not thread in the hole. Thanks

It is a special size. The specialty stores have an adapter for it.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

I would need to recheck, but I think they are 5/8"-24


See the USA in your vintage Chevrolet!
